Q: May
I use one of your pictures on my webpage/blog/somethingsomething?

A: Sure,
as long as you credit me for the picture and, if possible, add a link to back to
my page.

~

Q: What about using one on my computer as a wallpaper?

A: Go ahead, no
restrictions there.

~

Q: On the subject of wallpapers: could you perhaps put
up a section with wallpaper-sized versions of your pictures? Most of them are
too small to use...

A: Eergh, perhaps in the future. I have thought about
making some, but I never get to it.

~

Q: Are you going
to do any new tutorials? Can I make a suggestion for one?

A: Very
likely, and you sure can.

~

Q: Hey, are you open for commissions? There's this picture I need...

A: I probably am. Obviously I don't accept commissions when I'm being
swarmed by an army of deadlines, but those periods are usually over within a few
weeks. Just send me an email and check if you're interested.

~

Q: How old are you? Are you a guy or a gal?

A: But...the artist info section is right there... *points*. Oh what the heck,
I'm 21 and a gal.

~

Q: Well, I don't really feel like reading that stuff.
So, are you a student?

A: Yes, first year bachelor student at the University of Art
and Design in Helsinki.

~

Q: How did you learn how to draw? Did you go to an
art school as a kid?

A: I'm mostly self taught, and at digital art completely
self taught, as in I've never taken any courses or such. I of course enjoy the
occasional tutorial I find, and often study the works and techniques of
those who are better than me.

As a kid I did go to weekly two-hour art session thingies after school where
I learnt the basics of various materials and techniques such as oil painting,
pastels, etching and painting with coal. The kind of things I never would had
touched othervise, and those skills have come in handy even if I don't do much
traditional media stuff nowadays.

~

Q: Do you have any favourite artists or people you look up to.

A:
Yea, tons and bucketloads of them, some dead and some living. But I'm not going to start
opening that box right now. But it's a large box, I can tell you that. (Plus I'm
kind of terrible at remembering names, eheh.)

~

Q: Heey, you're on Deviantart, right? Are ya'
open for art trades perchance?

A: Naaaw... At least not in the near future. I
just get stressed out by those, and there's just not enough time to spend in the
life of a poor little student who really enjoys sleeping until noon whenever
given the chance.

~

Q: About the comic... how long will it be?

A: Dunno for sure,
but right now it looks like 300-350 pages. That could change, of course. My
script only exists inside the mess that is my brain so that page estimate
might be as useful as a
bucket of dog hair.

~

Q: How much time do you spend on one page?

A: About ten
hours, perhaps. I've never really checked, but I usually manage to draw the
lineart in less than seven hours and then spend two-three hours coloring and
adding the speech bubbles

~

Q: Could I ask you a bunch of questions
for a project/inteview type of thing/ personal interest/ some other reason? :)
